A stockbroker who works purely on commission for his clients is likely to have the lowest idle production capacity because they only get paid when they make a sale, so they have a greater incentive to be productive and make sales. In contrast, the other jobs listed all have some form of guaranteed pay or base salary that may encourage idleness or lack of productivity.
